Not as good as its predecessor, still great
Tales of Symphonia was one of the best games ever: the story was epic, the gameplay was fantastic, and the design was mouth-watering.
Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of The New World is still great, but it doesn't quite reach the level of its predecessor: the story seems completely cliché, the characters are entirely predictable, and in terms of design, a lot seems to be missing (for example, the fully explorable world map has been replaced by a map with a few clickable locations).
However, the simple fact that the whole game is set in the world of Tales of Symphonia guarantees that we are dealing with a good game: not exactly perfect, but definitely worth it.

Improved combat system and monster catching, but shorter gameplay
Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of The New World is the sequel to the wonderful Tales of Symphonia. Unfortunately, this game is not as good as its predecessor, but it is still a very enjoyable game. The combat system has been improved, and with the ability to catch monsters, it's even more fun. What is a bit disappointing though, is that you can no longer freely roam the world; you now simply select where you want to go and you're there. As a result, the game has become significantly shorter. Fortunately, thanks to the "grade system," you can replay it many times.
